Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process.
Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as
Public
Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the
Guide.
Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes,
statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect.
If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has
not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already
been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes
made to the current law.
(35 ILCS 5/509) (from Ch. 120, par. 5-509)
Sec. 509. Tax checkoff explanations. (a) All individual income tax return forms
shall contain appropriate explanations and spaces to enable the taxpayers to
designate contributions to the funds to which contributions may be made under this Article 5.
(b) Each form shall contain a statement that the contributions will reduce the
taxpayer's refund or increase the amount of payment to accompany the return.
Failure to remit any amount of increased payment shall reduce the contribution
accordingly.
(c) If, on October 1 of any year, the total contributions to any one of the
funds made under this Article 5 do not equal $100,000 or more, the explanations
and spaces for designating contributions to the fund shall be removed from the
individual income tax return forms for the following and all subsequent years
and all subsequent contributions to the fund shall be refunded to the taxpayer. This contribution requirement does not apply to the Diabetes Research Checkoff Fund checkoff contained in Section 507GG of this Act.
(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the Department shall include the Hunger Relief Fund checkoff established under Section 507SS on the individual income tax form for the taxable year beginning on January 1, 2012. If, on October 1, 2013, or on October 1 of any subsequent year, the total contributions to the Hunger Relief Fund checkoff do not equal $100,000 or more, the explanations
and spaces for designating contributions to the fund shall be removed from the
individual income tax return forms for the following and all subsequent years
and all subsequent contributions to the fund shall be refunded to the taxpayer. (Source: P.A. 96-328, eff. 8-11-09; 97-1117, eff. 8-27-12.)
